Our Origin Story:
CyCO was born from the frustration of seeing startups either overlook security or overpay for bloated solutions they didn't need.
We decided to change that-with a lean, brain-powered, polymath-style cybersecurity firm that works for modern innovators, not against them.
Instead of just ticking checkboxes, we think creatively like attackers and build protectively like engineers. We combine the mindset of ethical hackers with practical consulting and real-time threat knowledge.
What Makes Us Different:
We're Polymaths. We mix tech, creativity, strategy, research, and business thinking to provide smarter, more adaptive cybersecurity.
We're Remote-First. No offices. No overhead. Just focused security delivery from anywhere.
We Think Like Builders. We understand how startups operate- and design protection that fits your actual workflows.
We're Growing With You. Start small, start smart. We grow our protection as your product scales.
The Psychos of CyCO
Founding Pillars. Comrades Turned Partners. Polymaths with a Purpose.
CyCO wasn’t built by execs. It was shaped by rebels. These are the ones who turned digital obsession into a cybersecurity movement. Each one — self-learned, self-forged, and deeply embedded in the game.
DULAREYA – The Polymath
Founder & CEO | Jack of All Trades
"I didn’t choose a domain — I chose them all."
The architect of CyCO. Dulareya is a master generalist — bridging red teaming, blue defense, digital forensics, and cyber consulting. With vision beyond roles and systems, he leads CyCO with a polymath mind, blending creativity, precision, and strategy in equal measure.
Self-Note from Dulareya:
> “I’m not built for one thing — I’m wired for everything. I break, build, secure, and strategize. CyCO isn’t a company to me. It’s my execution ground — my idea brought to war.”
SMARA – The Spark
Co-Founder & COO | Head of Innovation
"If it doesn’t exist, I’ll build it. If it breaks, I’ll rebuild it better."
Smara is CyCO’s engine. The builder of tools, systems, and scalable structures. From automation pipelines to SaaS development, he leads CyCO’s innovation arm with speed, experimentation, and zero tolerance for stagnation.
Self-Note from Smara:
> “Innovation isn’t a job — it’s my language. I think in frameworks, code, and possibilities. CyCO runs because I’m always three versions ahead.”
KANAN – The Shield
Co-Founder & CISO | Head of Blue Team
"Quiet doesn’t mean unaware. I watch everything."
Kanan is the shield that never sleeps. A guardian of infrastructure, policies, and people. He leads CyCO’s Blue Team — turning monitoring into a sixth sense, compliance into second nature, and defense into art.
Self-Note from Kanan:
> “Every secure system starts with observation. I don’t guess — I detect. I don’t panic — I prepare. At CyCO, I’m the wall between threats and everything we’ve built.”
DASS – The Detective
Co-Founder & CTO | Head of DFI
"Every digital crime leaves a scar. I just follow the blood trail."
Dass is CyCO’s digital detective — leading the DFI division with forensic precision. From incident response to breach reconstruction, he follows the clues that attackers leave behind and turns chaos into clarity.
Self-Note from Dass:
> “Logs speak. Timelines confess. I don’t chase ghosts — I trap them. CyCO’s post-breach response starts where most stop — deep in the evidence.”
We Are CyCO
More than founders. More than hackers.
We are minds forged in obsession and refined through chaos.
We are the Psychos of CyCO — and this is just our opening act.
